In the intellectual property system in pharmaceuticals, the characteristics of Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) makes it's difficult to be properly protected by patent system. While the system of trade secrets fits it well. It can give enough protection to TCM and should be applied broadly. But in this process, the system of trade secrets on TCM faces the big challenge form the rules of the public-interest defence, due to the need of protecting the public health. Whether the related information should be disclosed or protected is in controversy, which will shake the foundation of trade secrets. In order to find the effective solution, we should balance the interests between public and individuals, disclose the different information to different subjects. This kind of limited disclosure is helpful to both the public and the private, and it will do good to the development of the system of trade secrets in TCM. |
